Signs in due time were not invented (people had no time to compose), but formed as a way of transferring experience to future generations. Signs were a kind of inference, the result of observations: when a person spilled sugar, he thought what it means to spill sugar. And when this happened many times, conclusions were drawn, which events follow the scattered sugar most often.
So, for example, everyone has a much more famous notion about the scattered salt and the many misfortunes that await the "scatterer". Salt was once very expensive, it was difficult to be mined and fumbled from afar. Therefore, the saltcellar could afford to be put on the table only on holidays (for this reason today, the saltcellar can not be put on the table), and if someone overturned it, the atmosphere in the house, to put it mildly, deteriorated. By the way, the salt could be scattered on purpose - it's like throwing a gauntlet glove in the face, talking about calling for a duel, and the overturned saltcellar marked the beginning of a war between the families.
